Shipping and logistics company Harren Group will deploy Sealenic’s AI solutions across its fleet of 70 vessels and 26 offices.
Sealenic was founded in 2024 by Flagship Founders. The company said it has developed an AI-based solution that makes finding and interpreting information related to maritime operations faster, easier and more secure. Operational staff can use Sealenic via a web app, tablet or smartphone, by typing their questions into a chat interface. Within seconds, they receive accurate answers, relevant context, and references to the sources behind the response – all delivered in an intuitive, conversational format. Harren Group said that unlike many general-purpose AI tools, Sealenic guarantees the reliability of its answers.
Harren Group is one of the first companies to systematically implement an Agentic AI solution specifically developed for ship operations. By deploying Sealenic’s solution, it aims to reduce the workload of its employees and support them in operational decision-making, helping to lower the risk of errors while increasing efficiency and job satisfaction.
Harren Group said the AI solution processes both company-specific documents – such as manuals, policies, and procedures – and publicly available information including IMO and EU regulations, port state and class requirements and local legislation. It can interpret and prioritise this content, significantly reducing the time and effort required to find the right answer. Harren group said that in testing, Sealenic has demonstrated potential time savings of one hour per person per day for office-based users and two hours per person per day for vessel crews.
Nils Aden, managing director at Harren Group, said: “With Sealenic’s AI solution, our employees no longer have to search for information from various sources – this is a major step forward towards greater safety and efficiency. The solution developed with Sealenic provides accurate answers reliably and quickly, significantly enhancing the consistency of our services.”
Paramvir Singh, co-founder and managing director of Sealenic, added: “Since we began working together, we’ve found that Harren Group and its QHSE team are incredibly committed, open-minded and tech-savvy. Like us, they are convinced that AI will solve the most pressing challenges in shipping. Harren Group is clearly a leader when it comes to digitalisation, and we’re proud to be part of that journey and support their teams at sea and ashore.”
